stumbling along

Amazing Thank you Jen

Everybody today seems to be in such a terrible rush, anxious for greater developments and greater riches and so on, so that children have very little time for their parents. Parents have very little time for each other, and in the home begins the disruption of peace of the world.

My situation is like trying to cut through a huge tight knot, you need to decide where to cut and stay in that one spot until the cut it done. But also, have the ability to correctly measure, so you aren’t left short. With this in mind you will have success and good fortune. Don’t be afraid to shake that rope and pull it, to get the true length of it.

But those who bring it on, must be , honest - with others, and with themselves. Honesty is the rock of the foundation, it is a trait of the strong and self-confident. To be successful person you must master the art of honesty.

Much like a swordsman learning to fence. When lies, delusions and game-playing are getting in the way, a swift sword of honesty, perhaps even punishment, must be wielded to protect my integrity and values. I think decisiveness with integrity at this time will bring good fortune.

Though I must act vigorous, I must not be hasty, severe, or arbitrary. Carefully consider all the circumstances, all of the possibilities. These are serious events, I must forgive, but not forget. At least until that person has made some kind of effort to make up for his mistakes. If corrective action is necessary, I will make sure that it fits the crime. When rules have become slack and broken, only through the effectiveness can love be restored.

In situations where serious issues of justice are at stake, I will keep careful records, and I will not hesitate to go public with the truth.

Put all convention ideas aside and be powered by revealing your passionate nature.

My creativity continues to flow in every area of your life today. A sense of excitement is getting me through my daily routine, and at times I am lacking focus. But to have clear communication is important, so I need to play this over in my mind today.

When you venture to do something new there is generally difficulty at the beginning. It is like venturing into unknown territory, a feeling of excitement and fear all rolled into one. The main thing is to not to rush things because if things are hurried then confusion can easily take over, so stay calm and don’t let events overwhelm you. Take it one step at a time, and don’t be afraid to ask or have help when you can.

I know challenges lie ahead,and I am gaining strength and courage as each successful day develops.

Think of a new baby fawn, how it is determined to raise to its feet and survives to grow to an adult. It keeps going despite difficulties.

My main challenge is to try to maintain a personnel clearness. Avoid lunging at solutions but to wait until a good course of action becomes clear. Being careless right now could lead to no control. Is there any one with the experience that can help? Yes there is, He says “Ask and you shall receive.”

I do have the faith needed to receive.

October 5/07:These are my Grandparents. My Grandfather passed 2 years before I was born. My Grandmother lived to the age of 98. She passed 4 years ago. It will be five this March. I am grateful to have had these precious people as part of me. I am the mum, I am because of them and the Creator God. October 6/7: Here, Apple taking time out with the prince.

Sometimes i feel what i do isn’t as important as the other guy. I may believe that what I do today is less important than what others think. Naturally, my presentation can be crucial, but it will ultimately be irrelevant without real substance to back it up. That is why it is necessary time to finish your tasks with the kind of workmanship that makes you proud of your accomplishments.
Look for opportunities to be generous, warm and nurturing.
I am more sensitive and intuitive than usual. I find myself having vivid dreams or even premonitions. Today, I wore the hat of mediator in a dispute, and I did so with great success.

After a thunderstorm, or any time period of extreme tension, there is a new clarity and fresh opportunities. The storm has the effect of clearing the air and suddenly reducing atmospheric tension. The smell of freshness is in the air.

Daily Apple Photo, went to Da Daughters and she loves this painting, i did it years ago.

I feel like a child in amazement today. As I discover the mysteries of my life.

I love the sunsets that bathe the mountains in the soft radiant colors. The way the moonlight dances on the surface of the water. What beauty and grace nature has. It is not essential nor is it fundamental but the nature world has Grace.
